Stearosan is santalol combined with stearic acid. It is an odor-less, tasteless, light yellow oily liquid that is insoluble in water anddilute acids but is slowly broken up by alkaline fluids. The patho-logical conditions in which it may be employed with advantage areprecisely those in which santal oil has long been used—chronicgonorrhea, cystitis, urethritis, vaginitis, pulmonary disorders suchas chronic bronchitis, bronchorrhea, etc. It possesses therapeuticproperties fully equal to those of santal oil, over which it has theimportant advantage of being practically without irritating effect.
